55Great spot! The fencing around the yard was super secure, even for our small dog. The space was also very clean with lots of open room to play. Evelynn provided treats, water, poop bags, and some balls which were appreciated. We'll definitely be back!Annie C.

55The place was large and spacious. The neighbors were doing construction or some kind of work that was loud, but the fence was solid and helped my dogs feel safe. My dogs had a great time running around. Water was provided and there were some supplies too. It was a great experience and we will be returning again. Cicily C.

FAQ about our San Mateo dog parks
Are dog parks good for dogs?
It is important for dogs to have off leash exercise to sniff and run. But the free and open nature of public dog parks has drawbacks. There could be aggressive dogs, disease transmission and cleanliness issues. For this reason, many dog behaviorists discourage visiting public dog parks and recommend Sniffspot's private dog parks. Sniffspot private dog parks only allow one guest to book at a time and are not open to the public, which solves many of these issues.
Are dog parks safe?
While public dog parks have a number of safety issues, such as aggressive dogs, disease transmission and general cleanliness, Sniffspot dog parks much safer than public dog parks. With Sniffspot all bookings are private for just you and dogs you bring with you and we require all dogs to be vaccinated (or have equivalent titers). All Sniffspot locations are vetted and reviewed by guests so you can find the perfect place for you and your dog. 95% of reviews on Sniffspot visits in the San Mateo area are 5 stars.
How do I know if a dog park works for my dog?
You can filter Sniffspot dog parks by fencing and distractions. If your dog doesn't have good recall, you can visit one of our 104 fully fenced dog parks in the area. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our 17 off leash areas where there are no dogs audible or visible nearby. You can also filter locations to avoid other domestic animals and people. We also recommend reading reviews and reaching out to the host with any questions.
